Bring your class to the parks or invite a ranger to your classroom for a free curriculum-based, ranger-led program.
Sequoia and Kings Canyon National Parks offer a variety of curriculum-based program opportunities that combine the educational objectives of California's teachers with the natural and cultural resources found in the parks.
Bring your class to the parks!
Imagine walking a trail with your students, surrounded by some of the largest living things on earth. You hear the crack of a twig and look up to see a deer running across the meadow. Your students not only hear what you are teaching-they see it right in front of their eyes. These programs closely follow the approved California State Curriculum in science and social sciences.

Invite a ranger into your Classroom!
Rangers in the Classroom is a multi-grade, curriculum-based program that enables park rangers to visit elementary schools throughout Tulare County. Through classroom programs park education staff engages students in innovative activities that...
- introduce students to the great outdoors, and to the natural and cultural resources of Sequoia and Kings Canyon National Parks.
- teach students how to be environmental stewards in their community.
- demonstrate how taking care of the environment in their own community will also benefit their national parks.
